Henry Cavill wants his girlfriend to be a "drinking buddy".
The 'Man of Steel' actor - who is in a relationship with actress Gina Carano - likes women who are confident, but not aggressive and who can handle their liquor.

He said: "What's important to me is that a woman has confidence in what she is, as opposed to trying to conform to someone else's type. [I don't like aggressive women] because they're always on the defensive. I like a good drinking buddy - and I can drink a lot."
Henry, 30, insisted there isn't a particular physical attribute he favours in a woman as he thinks the entire female form is "beautiful".
He told Glamour magazine: "I mean, no artist could imagine a more beautiful shape. It's incredible. A man can look attractive, beautiful even, but nothing like a woman naked.
"That's why women would rather look at other naked women than at men."
Henry - whose engagement to equestrian Ellen Whitaker ended last year - admits his work makes relationships tough, but insists he would never be unfaithful while away for long periods of time.
He said: "It takes a lot of understanding from the other person, because there's a lot of time apart, but I've always been a monogamous man."
